All she could recall was that Drake had been in it. She smiled into her pillow, longing to grasp what had faded away; then she realized her happiness was real. Since Drake had kissed her on the beach, everything seemed more splendid. Too bad they had not had time alone since. He had come to Cothaire one evening to dine with the whole family, and she had admired how he could argue with her father when their opinions differed, but always offered her father the respect he was due as an earl. Raymond and Caroline welcomed him wholeheartedly, but Arthur was a bit more tentative. Her older brother always felt it was his position, as heir, to be cautious. Even so, by evening’s end, he had become slightly more relaxed with Drake. She assured Drake that, for Arthur, it was equal to a hearty embrace. She treasured every moment with Drake. A single glance from him left her smiling for hours. The brush of his fingers made her dizzy with delight. Seeing Drake playing with the children, who adored him, touched her heart in ways she could not have imagined.
